“As we develop Osler’s next five-year strategic plan, this Telephone Town Hall is an opportunity to engage local residents in a dialogue about health care programs and services that matter most to them,” said Dr. Brendan Carr.

“Feedback received through the discussion will help inform Osler’s strategic plan and guide our continued efforts to deliver quality care to the communities we serve for years to come.”

Thousands of local households will be randomly selected and invited to join the Telephone Town Hall, although anyone can take part. Community members interested in participating are invited to sign-up in advance by calling 905-494-2120 ext. 50200 or by emailing teletownhall@williamoslerhs.ca and provide their phone number no later than 4:00 p.m. Wednesday, April 25.
